Babri Masjid Demolition | Charge Against LK Advani, Manohar Joshi and Uma Bharti Restored

It has been two and a half years since Samantha last appeared as a heroine on the silver screen. After Khushi, she spent some time in the United States and focused on her personal life. She made a brief guest appearance in Shubham, a film she produced, and then largely stayed away from acting. During this period, her marriage to Bollywood director-producer Raj Nidimoru went viral online, capturing public attention.

Currently, Samantha is starring in Maa Inti Bangaram, a female-led film that she is also producing herself. The project is scheduled to release later this year, and fans are curious about what Samantha’s career trajectory will look like post this film. Questions abound about whether she will continue to take bold, leading roles and how she will balance her personal life with her professional choices.

Samantha started her career with bold performances. Her intimate scenes with Naga Chaitanya created a stir early on. However, as she matured as an actress, she consciously moved away from such scenes. Her on-screen presence has largely focused on roles that offer substance, even within commercial films. She did make a bold appearance in the song Oo Antava Mava from Pushpa: The Rise, which created pan-India buzz, but immediately decided not to pursue similar glamor-focused roles further—a choice that surprised many of her fans.

In an industry where competing in the glamour world often requires taking on daring roles, Samantha has charted a different path. Early on, she experimented with Bollywood, embracing outfits and styles suited to the culture there. She also worked in web series like Citadel, taking on challenging roles without compromise. Yet, her marriage to Raj Nidimoru and her focus on personal life has brought some changes, and it remains to be seen how she will navigate future projects.

At present, Samantha resides in Mumbai, occasionally visiting Hyderabad for work or personal reasons. Fans are keenly watching how she will balance her evolving personal life with her career ambitions in the coming years.
